HardKnot is the product of my 20 years in the commercial woodworking industry coupled with a desire to design and build custom wood products on my own.

I have focused on building chairs made from oversized pallets most pallet resellers do not want due to their size. These pallets are usually thrown in the dumpster even though they have been used only one time.

Over the last year I have been perfecting the process of turning old, twisted, & discarded pallet wood into beautiful chairs built to hold up to heavy wear and tear. All chairs are constructed using traditional joinery and use no nails or screws. Although the finish may look rough to the eye, they are smooth to the touch.

Why does a chair made out of pallets have to look fragile, feel cheap, & resemble a pallet?
